    Masters?

    Akro Flinties could have the pole to pole structure. And Master Cloudy could.

    Masters?

    Marble King, Vitro, Akro?
  3. Found the nickname. Sprite.
  4. I'm seeing Rainbo. I do not know a nickname for that color combo.
  5. That's a small one? Going with game marble, possibly one made by Alley.

    Marbles such as this are why I am rooting for Pelt on the third.
  7. I sorta want the green to be Alley, but with as much green as there is you're probably correct about Jabo. Edit: actually with that bright green, I might consider Vacor for the modern option. And I want the black and orange to be CAC but you're probably correct about Vacor.
  8. Oooooooh. Pretty. I should know whose but I don't. Could be Pelt. Could be one of the more obscure makers that we now know do bananas. I haven't kept up with we know about those lesser known cat eye makers.

    Good chance on the red. Long seams on the green could point other directions.

    Peltier. Akro. Akro or Pelt.
  11. Akro on #1. Jabo on #4.
  12. I'm with Rick on the top one. The three ribbons in different colors also give me a foreign vibe.
  13. I'm not aware of Liberties ever being anything but crystal clear base. Not saying it didn't happen. But am not assuming that it did. Would surely be a good lesson if it turns out they came with different base glass.
  14. Had to come back and reread your intro to let another layer of details and history permeate.
  15. I saw that possibility in his first photos. But this group puts things in a different light ... pun intended.
  16. The point is that you have not been waiting for a consensus. You took one tentative answer that you liked and ran with it, and then made a non-good-faith ebay listing with it. Now you're insulting the people who have been trying to help you. Bad form.
  17. Not as bad as mine does me. I can't say I remember that. I wondered if it might be something you sent via Facebook messenger, but searching that for "Canada" or "Canadian" isn't pulling the article up.

    What ?

    Got a little road and tunnel going on in this view. So I'll go with the usual suspects: CAC or Akro.
  19. Unusual. I can't place it. My first thought on the colors was Jabo, but the structure looks vintage. Since our akro friend above doesn't recognize it as one of is, I won't be surprised if it turns out to be either Master or Vitro.
  20. Here you go! Don't know how long they keep these segments, but for now you can view it at the show's website. Rolley Hole, the "Super Bowl of marbles" - CBS News
  21. Glad I saw it. But now I wonder what people in the know thought when they saw it. At the end of the segment, the spectators and park employees were saying things like, "I've been here 17 years and I still don't understand how the game is played"? Cute, but what?
